The HSD271 provides high-quality audio monitoring through its closed-back, over-ear design, which offers excellent noise attenuation. Connect the headset to your audio source (e.g., mixing console, intercom system) using the appropriate cable.

To activate the microphone, lower the flexible arm to a position in front of your mouth. The microphone is dynamic and designed for clear voice communication. To mute the microphone, simply raise the arm to its upright position.

The headset features a switch in the headband that automatically mutes the audio when the headphones are taken off. This prevents feedback and protects the headphones from accidental loud signals when not in use.
